Sharing my thoughts
It just AM. I am just me, a citizen of this world.
A lover of live.
Moving to the US was a crazy change for me but I was always proud to say that as soon as I moved here I felt more free!
Im Mexico and Colombia, perhaps racism isn’t called the same way, it is more classism rather than racism. But it is there.
I grew up in a very narrow minded society... don’t get me wrong I belonged. I consider myself very similar to a chameleon.
I blend in.
But I was never truly happy until I felt the freedom of not having to belong of just being me, in the country of “freedom”.
This dream lasted a short period of time and it was shattered when is started to realize how deep the roots of racism grow here, the grass is not always greener on the other side right?
Although I am the happiest I’ve ever been. This country has given me the best gifts of my life.
I just have to accept I can’t stand the fact that you always have to describe yourself as: Hispanic or Latino, white, African American, Asian etc.
What happens if I just don’t want to be labeled?
We label ourselves and others all the time. It helps us to compartmentalize situations and behaviors. Frequently, we're actually communicating something about ourselves by saying, "I'm not that."
However, the fact that we label people by their behavior and characteristics can end up limiting our curiosity about our inner self and everyone around us.
Stop labeling yourself and others.
There is only one race Human RACE.
